Settle the Debate: How Do You Feel About NFL Preseason Games? [POLL]

We've reached that time of year in which the countdown to football has dropped from months to weeks. College and high school football kick off in just a few weeks. The NFL regular season is on a similar schedule. However, the NFL preseason begins tonight (Thursday, August 9) as the Dallas Cowboys travel to take on the San Francisco 49ers.

Will you be watching?

As a lover of football, I will be. Of course, the game doesn't start until 9 p.m. Center Time so, truth be told, I'll probably be passed out in bed by halftime. Regardless, I'm still going to watch. I know I'm not alone in that decision, but I also know there are others who don't believe in preseason football.

See, preseason NFL football doesn't include the team starters. This is a huge turnoff for some fans. I see it as an opportunity to watch some of the guys who won't get field time during the regular season. These could include rookies from my Alma mater. In addition, I would much rather watch preseason football now than wait a few weeks for the regular season.

Football is football, to me.
